My name is Frank Oznar. My blog, FxTaTrader, is a challenge to achieve the goal of doing the right trades on Forex with a minimum of risk. To achieve as much diversification as possible with the minimum number of trades. To this end, the FxTaTrader Models have been brought to life through my weekly articles available on my blog. I started my blog because I wish to share my interest in the technical analysis of the markets, which has fascinated me since the early 1990s. I was then about 25 years old. At the time, I had started studying Business Economics at an intermediate vocational education level and afterwards Exact Sciences at a pre-university, secondary education level. After I graduated I started working as a software developer, data and business analyst for many years. As part of my work I have been taking many courses at the college level in this field of expertise. Over the years, my studies and work made it possible to look into technical analysis from an economic and scientific view. To this day, I prefer looking at technical analysis from these perspectives. My interest in Technical Analysis kept me curious and I read different books and have been testing many indicators. Also optimizing indicators kept me quite busy for a while. Currently I have filtered what the really interesting indicators are for me. I have also come to the conclusion that optimizing indicators does not work for me. It all started with trading at the Stock Exchange in The Netherlands and after a few years I was trading on the Nasdaq. I traded with stocks, options, futures and currencies. My market interest has changed from stocks to currencies. I keep learning every day. After many years using and evaluating different trading models in different types of markets and with different products I filtered out what works best for me. The Forex market made it possible to enhance my trading models even further. I developed a strategy where placing orders once a day, after closing of the US session, might result in similar or better outcomes compared to other active strategies. These may be strategies where many hours are necessary, e.g. because of extensive trading on intraday charts. By combining my knowledge of Business Economics, Exact Science and IT skills I created for myself, and others who are interested, possibilities which nowadays can easily be combined with a busy daily schedule. In my blog I will write articles about Forex in combination with Technical analysis based on my experience and research. It is information and no advice. I take a neutral position so the reader can make his/her own mind about things. In general my goal is to provide articles that provide value-added information compared to what can be found in general on the internet. This value-added information is based on my experience and/or the research that I have done. There are third parties who also provide relevant information for the decision making process and I will try to provide the necessary information so the reader can come to a well reasoned decision. I may refer frequently to information on the internet because it is not my intention to copy/paste here the already available information elsewhere. The information will be provided as clearly as possible without going into details if it is not necessary. The way I see it, I believe it is best to get the whole picture. This makes it also easier to understand the details that someone likes to dive into. I have also added a disclaimer to this blog, please read it.less
